THE BEST TUNA SALAD

While we love many kinds of tuna salad, this classic version tops them all. The crispy celery and red onion give add zest and crunch, while mayonnaise and touch of mustard marry it all together. The lemon juice is optional as it's not traditional, but we strongly recommend it to brighten up the flavors of the final dish.

GREEN BEAN AND TUNA SALAD WITH BASIL DRESSING

Our idea of salad for dinner in the height of summer means minimal cooking, lots of fresh greens, and enough protein to feel filling. Here, that means quickly blanched green beans, canned white beans, parsley leaves, and Little Gem lettuce get tossed in a punchy basil dressing with oil-packed tuna and capers.

Steps:

  • Combine shallot, vinegar, and 1 tsp. salt in a blender jar. Let sit 5-10 minutes to lightly pickle.
  • Meanwhile, cook green beans in a large pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Drain, then run under very cold water until cool to the touch.
  • Add basil, oil, lemon juice, and pepper to shallot mixture and blend until mostly smooth. Pour dressing into a large bowl. Add green beans, lettuce, white beans, parsley, and capers and toss with your hands to coat. Add tuna and gently toss to combine. Transfer salad to a platter.

1 shallot, coarsely chopped
3 Tbsp. sherry vinegar or red wine vinegar
1 tsp. kosher salt, plus more
1 lb. green beans, trimmed
1 1/2 cups basil leaves
6 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
